President also made efforts to meet Member (A), JS (A) & Commissioner
(Co-ordination), CBIC, New Delhi but, due to their engagements outside North
Block, meetings could not be held.
On 15.03.2018, the delegation of AICEIA visited various
authorities at CBIC, North Block, New Delhi and made gentle but, effective
reminders to the authorities like US, Ad.-II A and US, Ad. II B about the
pending issues with them. Later, a meeting of the said Office-Bearers of
AICEIA was also held with the Member (A), CBIC, Govt. of India. Resolution
adopted in XXth Convention, Mumbai alongwith other communications were
submitted. We discussed various issues like feasibility of ICT, enactment
of new Recruitment Rules for the post of Superintendent of Central Excise
(CGST), action on DoPT OM dated 25.03.1996, non-conduct of DPC’s at various
CCAs, inaction of CCAs like Vadodara on the directions given by CBIC etc. and
requested Member (A), CBIC, GoI to take steps to minimize litigations on
service matters. Member (A), CBIC, GoI was kind enough to give us patient
hearing and responded in affirmative on almost all the issues and assured to
take necessary steps. Regarding ICT, initially the Member (A), CBIC, GoI opposed
our submission due to non-insertion of provision of ICT in new RR but, later
due to our vigorous persuasion, he agreed to find out legal backing for
continuation of current procedure of ICT. We requested the Member (A), CBIC,
GoI to convene a minuted meeting with AICEIA which was accepted by him.

soon. AICEIA looks forward to avail this opportunity for discussing the
grievances of the Cadre.
